Nice shave today Josh! I have always admired Dr. Jon's Soaps. I know it is one of his oldest scents but the Anne Bonny (Bay Rum) is probably my favorite bay rum scent. I like many of his other scents also..This one intrigues me a bit. I am with you on how the soap performs. In every aspect of the soap I think it performs like a tier one soap...EXCEPT the residual slickness and post shave feel. I attribute this to the soap being a vegan based soap. But otherwise...a really great soap!
